Critique Club Review:
Technical: Focus and depth of field are good. Color, saturation and hue are fine as well.
Reaction: Sorry, this one is over my head. The two objects are definetly unrelated. However, the picture doesn't really send me a message. It's a nice model and a nice eight ball. But I don't see a story, or a pun, or a play on words here. I keep trying for the "Oh, I get it!", moment. But it just doesn't come.
Sorry to say it looks to me like it was two items picked at random.
It is a well done photo, and I think it should have scored somewhat higher on technical merit alone. But it is one that is hard to "read".
Perhaps the term is unique to Austrailia. In which case it would work well. We do have the term, "Behind the eight ball" here in the USA, which is used to denote a person in trouble. Something bad usually is happening to a person behind the eight ball here.
I do wish there was more in your comments that explained what you were trying to do. If you would like to PM me, I'd be happy to take another look. |
